White Kidney Bean Cranberry Pastry Mooncake

Overview

The Mid-Autumn Festival is getting closer and closer, and mooncakes from major brands in supermarkets have already been put on the shelves. For me who loves baking, naturally I will not buy mooncakes. I have prepared the ingredients early and started making homemade mooncakes! This season is perfect for making puff pastry mooncakes. The right temperature makes the whole process go smoothly and the effect is quite good. I used the puff pastry method to make this puff pastry mooncake. The filling is homemade white kidney bean cranberry filling, which is sweet and sour and especially delicious.
